Remarks:

FOX DEN: This unique Jim Fox modernist design has just undergone a masterful, meticulous $1.5+ million renovation resulting in a modernized and sophisticated home. Updates include all systems, windows, siding, kitchen, baths, upgraded finishes throughout and landscaping. One of Fox’s most striking installations, the structural concept is based on 4 intersecting planes offering unique angles & glass throughout resting on the edge of Satulah Mountain at 4100ft elevation. The living room opens to stunning long-range views to nearby Whiteside, Chimneytop & Terrapin Mountains and the inward view is of Fox’s trademark organic stacked stone fireplace. The custom kitchen hosts Bosch and Fisher & Paykel paneled appliances, Caesarstone countertops & Rohl fixtures that accentuate Fox’s sleek cabinetry and skylight windows. Upstairs is the secluded primary suite with dueling triangular windows overlooking the forest and the en-suite bath has heated marble floors and a walk-in closet. An office or studio space completes the suite with a private loft perched above. Vertical windows create an open-air feeling as you traverse the floors. The lower level boasts a lounge with a MCM Brutalist fireplace & dry bar central to 3 large bedrooms, each with newly renovated en-suite bathrooms and private decks. The baths and powder room feature herringbone marble floors. Exit the lounge to a lower 1000 sq ft deck which displays the impressive architecture of the house’s cantilevered, diamond-design and can be used for a game court, play area, or as an outdoor entertainment area. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an architectural marvel on historic Satulah Mountain and one of the few in-town houses with long range views within walking distance to Main St. The recent updates and native landscaping ensure it will be a low-maintenance investment for years to come. Highlands, NC was ranked America’s Best Small Mountain Town by Travel & Leisure magazine in 2023.
